Sunday Farewell

So today Mom Trish is packed off back to Nevada. We are very, very sorry to see her go as she provided much entertainment and value for money. Yesterday she scooped and scrubbed boxes, and made sure that Äiti needs do no heavy lifting in the next couple of weeks. We have stocked food cupboards and she even had the nerve to rearrange some feeding stations so that we are less likely to peemail in certain places. Well, we'll see if that works. Pöh.

Now we know some Loyal Readers of the Katnip Lounge and some of ours requested a commemorative postcard from this trip and we finally got them in the post yesterday. We trust they will arrive safely (give it 10 days or so) and we are honoured that so many felines from all over the globe were on our mailing list.

This has been a truly monumental experience. Äiti has rested up and been indulged. She is healing very nicely and will take it easy while on sick leave. We have had a great time and Äiti has noticed how much calmer we were with two humans and extra attention and cuddles. I only got a little hissy-fitty yesterday because of all the box cleaning. We have many photos to share from the visit over the next few weeks, and of course loads of crocheted toys to play with. We'll announce the winner of the 'guess what it is' competition soon!
